Therefore, without hesitation, she immediately switched on the answer button and put the phone to her ear.

"Hey..."

"Elizabeth, I'm daddy..." A hoarse voice, distant and familiar, came from the other end of the line.

The word 'daddy' wrenched at Elizabeth's heart, as if her small heart was ruthlessly stung by something.

Having worked in Swynwick for over a year, this was the first time she received the call from her father.

"What's the matter?" Although she was very excited, she checked her excitement and asked in a trembling voice.

"Elizabeth, how have you been? Dad knows that you've found a good job, so you ..." Inside the phone, Pablo had not finished speaking, but he was interrupted by someone rudely, "Do not waste time. Give me your phone. Hey, are you Pablo's daughter? Let me tell you, your dad owes us 500,000 dollars. You had better quickly return us the money. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that your dad won't live to tomorrow."

When Elizabeth heard this, a buzzing sound instant

    Probably because she was concerned about the huge debt of five hundred thousand dollars, Elizabeth was in a daze along the way.By the time she realized that she had gone past the station and was about to get off, the train had already reached the next stop.She hurriedly grabbed her luggage and wanted to get out of the car, but to her surprise, the bag that she had placed by her side disappeared without a trace.How could this be?Where was her bag?Elizabeth instantly cried. That was her entire asset, her father's lifesaving money.Some kind-hearted person saw that she was crying and came over to ask what had happened. They found out that her bag had been taken and they helped her inform the train attendant.After the conductor asked her some information, he took her off the train and asked her to contact her family or friends to pick her up at the train station.But she didn't have any friends in this strange little town. Other than her brother, who was far away in America, she onl

    "Your information that Oliver gave me included your phone number, so I memorized it." Elizabeth replied softly.Ronald understood. It seemed that she really had no choice but to ask him for help."Mr. Marquez, thank you for coming to pick me up so late. Thank you..." In order to express the gratitude in her heart, Elizabeth spoke once again."Alright. Close your eyes and rest." He had driven hundreds of kilometers to this remote town in the middle of the night, and he did not do it for her gratitude."I'm not tired. Let me talk to you for a while. People driving at night tend to doze off." Elizabeth said with good intention.But unfortunately, her good intention was not appreciated, instead the other party disliked it."You are too noisy." Ronald said and turned on the car stereo, a soothing cello concerto sounding.Elizabeth was very tactful, so she obediently shut up and closed her eyes to rest.After taking a nap, when she opened her eyes again, the car had already arrived at Locha

    At this time, Elizabeth had already gotten her soup bowl, and was about to retract her hand. But when she suddenly heard someone speaking behind her, she was shocked, and immediately fell off her chair in a caught off guard, directly smashing into Ronald's body. The bowl that she painstakingly took down from the cabinet fell onto the ground, shattering, and they fell heavily on the ground.Elizabeth laid directly on Ronald, and her face was even pressed against his neck.Everything happened so suddenly that Elizabeth, who had been knocked dizzily, failed to react. She could only raise her head in a daze, looking at the man beneath her with her clear, watery eyes.The man was also looking at her. His black eyes were as bright as the stars, emitting a bright light. He was so dazzling that one couldn't resist the temptation to look at him."It's very comfortable lying on the ground like this?" He said in a deep voice, breaking the deadlock between them. His beautiful thick eyebrows knitt

    "Or could it be that you want to awe me more, since you have already owed so much? You think anyway, you cannot pay off the debts.""No, no, I didn't think of it that way. I asked you to lend me these 500,000 dollars for..." Elizabeth wanted to explain.However, Ronald did not give her the chance, "I don't care what your purpose of borrowing money is, I just want to know, can you repay this money?"Elizabeth finally understood that she was too naive. Why did she think that someone who had nothing to do with her would loan her such a large sum of money?Especially when he knew she didn't have the ability to pay him back.She misunderstood. She thought that if she could get him to help her pick her up at the train station, she could also get him to lend her some money.In fact, he had no obligation to do these things. It was kind of him to be willing to help her, but it was also understandable if he refused."You...Would you like to buy me?" she bowed her head, saying in a faint voice.

    Elizabeth felt disgusted as she listened to Pablo's words.Especially after he said that his love for her was worthy, which made her feel that it was even more ridiculous.Since she could remember, her father was a busy gambler, who had never ever loved her and her brother.However, it was not the time to mind this. She restrained her emotions and turned to look at Ronald at the side. "Mr. Marquez, thank you for saving my father.""No need to thank me." A faint smile appeared on Ronald's face, and he said with a suggestive tone, "I did not do it for nothing."Hearing this, Elizabeth instantly thought of the trade between them, so she blushed immediately."Elizabeth, considering your relationship with Mr. Marquez, there is no need for you to show gratitude to him. After all, Mr. Marquez is not an outsider." Pablo, on the other hand, felt at ease, and did not forget to teach his daughter a lesson. Finally, he looked at Ronald, "What do you think, Mr. Marquez?"Elizabeth was in great emb

    Hearing that, Elizabeth immediately stopped crying, and looked at him in disbelief. "What you said ... Is that true?""Of course. I don't mind if you use other methods to pay your debt." As he spoke, he stood up and walked over to her, stroking the long hair that had fallen over her shoulders. "For example, at night, in bed ..."Elizabeth went red as a beet, bowing her head. She rubbed her hands nervously, not knowing where to put them."Since you've changed your clothes, let's go." When Ronald saw her embarrassed look, for some reason, he suddenly lit up. He retrieved the big hand that he had placed on her shoulder, turned around, and walked towards the direction of the main entrance.Elizabeth looked up at him in a daze, "Where are we going?""To eat."Only now did Elizabeth remember that she had not eaten breakfast.Ronald brought her to a restaurant and ordered a lot of dessert. Elizabeth was no longer reserved. She ate three soup dumplings and two pan fried, and a small bowl of p

    "Yes." Elizabeth nodded, "You are?""We are from the municipal government's investigation team. We have something to ask you." The middle-aged man said as he took out a photo from his briefcase and handed it to her. "Is this you?"Elizabeth looked at the photo. It was the picture of her playing cards that was published in the newspaper.Although she didn't understand the other party's intention, she still nodded, "Yes.""Alright. Then I'll have to trouble you to come with us. We have something that we need your cooperation in investigating." The other party said, and wanted to take her away, regardless of whether Elizabeth was willing or not.Seeing that, Elizabeth immediately turned to look at Blaze, hoping that he would help her.However, in the current situation, it seemed like Blaze was powerless to help.

I can't go to jail, for my brother is studying abroad and my father is like that. I still owe you so much money. What should I do?"Ronald did not dodge, he only extended his hand, and pulled her into his warm and wide embrace. He looked down at her red face, and allowed her to vent her anger.Elizabeth was tired, and then she cried sorrowfully leaning against his chest, as if she wanted to let out all the grievances and pain she had suffered during the past few days.His embrace was very comfortable, comforting others. When Elizabeth stopped crying, she suddenly realized that her actions were improper. In a hurry, she raised her head and struggled out of his embrace.He looked at him, instantly feeling his coldness, so that she trembled.What did she just do?She was so angry that she waving her fist

    After Shirley finished drinking the ginger soup, she laid on the bed, but for some reason, she could not fall asleep no matter how she tossed and turned.Outside the window, the rain gradually lessened. Occasionally, a few drops would be hit by the wind, but no sound would be produced.During her chat with Danica today, she found out quite a lot about him.She now knew the reason why he hadn't returned to the country in four years.She hadn't thought that after she was saved by him that year, he would not only be shot, but would also be in so much trouble.The problem had not been resolved until today, and he could be in danger of losing his life at any moment now.When she thought back to how he had caused Asher to lose everything and directly let him find someone to take his life, she couldn't help but admire his abilities.He always had the means to provoke people and put himself in danger.When she thought about the gamblin

    Shirley knew that Danica would not give up until she got an accurate answer from her tonight.But how could she describe to her the past between her and Zackary?"I'm not lying to you, your brother and I...We did know each other before, but not for long..." She thought for a moment before replying."Then do you like my brother?" Danica saw that her words did not seem to be fake, and asked again."En... This ..."Shirley herself had yet to figure out what kind of emotion she had towards Zackary."With such hesitation, it looks like you like him." Danica answered for her.Hearing that, Shirley hurriedly shook her head, "No ... No, I don't know him at all. How could I like him?""Who says you have to like someone after know him? Don't you know that love at first sight? I like someone just by seeing him once. You and my brother have met many times already, right? Like is one kind of feeling, which is ..."Danica said as she racked her

    "Get in the car." His tone was commanding, not allowing her to resist at all. The hand holding her wrist was also very strong, making it impossible for her to break free.Pulling her to the secondary driving seat, he released her and opened the car door. She was involuntarily pushed into the car by him.Her entire body was completely drenched, and the rain instantly drenched the seat.Zackary turned around and walked to the side of Driver. He put away the umbrella, and threw it in the back seat, then sat on the Driver himself.Zackary started the car and drove forward. She looked at him coldly and with a face full of displeasure, and said, "What are you doing? I don't need you to send me off.""Is that so?" he asked quietly."Yes, stop the car and let me go." Shirley didn't even fasten her seatbelt as she shouted directly.However, Zackary ignored her and focused on driving."Did you hear me tell you to stop the car? Who do you

    Shirley followed Zackary out of the villa and they walked along the main road.At that time, no one said a word. Occasionally, the buzz of insects could be heard; it was extremely quiet."Today's weather is really good." After an unknown period of time, Shirley felt that this quiet atmosphere was simply too strange, so she started to say something.As soon as she finished speaking, it started to drizzle."Looks like you like rain." Zackary looked at her, amused.Under the dim yellow light, his face was covered by a layer of hazy mist. His sharp blade-like facial features had also softened quite a bit. In addition to the smile in the depths of his eyes, he looked increasingly handsome and charming.This time, she felt awkward. The gods were not giving her face, and they just slapped her in the face every now and then.Shirley wanted to bite off her tongue for a moment."There's a pavilion ahead. Take shelter from the rain."

    What did that mean?Did he do something wicked outside again?Or had he killed someone again?With that thought in mind, she immediately shook her head and told herself, no. Although Zackary looked very fierce, he was definitely not the type of person who would do whatever he wanted and disregard human life.Didn't Danica say that before?That time when he saved her, it was his first time killing someone.Clearly, he was not a murderous demon lord.She had already misunderstood him once, so she couldn't misunderstand him again."Never mind, you don't want to tell me, and I'm too lazy to ask." She pretended not to mind as she shrugged. She turned her head to look outside the window again to ease the slight disappointment in her heart.Actually, deep down, she still wanted to understand a bit more about Zackary.She didn't know why, but even though she knew he was dangerous, she couldn't help but want to investigate

    Ronald nodded his head, "However, it seems that Asher did not lose willingly."So you came to be his bodyguard? He can order people around. "On one hand, Shirley admired Zackary's intelligence and on the other hand, she was slightly contemptuous of his methods.If he wants to buy a company from someone else, isn't he going to do it openly? It had to be a hostile takeover."I came to see your boyfriend." Ronald said with a half-joking and half-serious tone."...Not a real boyfriend." Shirley was a little speechless. Zackary really had a big mouth, selling her out the moment he opened his mouth."What's going on?" Ronald naturally did not believe that this girl would find a boyfriend without a word, and did not let him know either.Thus, Shirley told Ronald about what happened between her and Teagan.After Ronald heard this, he muttered to himself for a moment, "So, you believe that he simply wants to cooperate with you?""Believ

    Zackary probably did not expect to see Shirley here, as his deep eyes slightly narrowed. "So it's Ms. Pollard. Are you interested in wine, too?""No, I came over with a friend to take a look." Shirley replied."A friend?" Zackary seemed to be very interested in her friend, as he revealed a playful expression."It's a boyfriend." Teagan saw that the expression in Zackary's eyes when he looked at Shirley was a little strange.Shirley was suddenly embraced by him like this. She felt a little uncomfortable and was about to struggle, but then she realized that everyone was looking at them and that she was currently his girlfriend. She did not push him away, but had an awkward smile instead."So Ms. Pollard is looking for a boyfriend. Congratulations." His smile and words of congratulations seemed to come from the bottom of his heart.But when Shirley heard it, she felt that it was a bit ear-piercing."Thank you, Mr. Rowe. Since you are Shi

    In the evening, Teagan came to Pollard family to pick Shirley up. Mrs. Pollard was very happy and her originally depressed and unhappy face finally revealed a smile.Shirley changed into a set of normal small clothes and went downstairs. When Teagan saw this, he asked, "Don't you have any lively clothes?""Lively?" Shirley was startled, and then looked at Teagan's clothes, which was not an official suit, but a casual attire. She was a little curious, "Isn't it a royal ball?""It's a royal ball, but it's not suitable for business parties. You don't need to dress up so formally. You can wear whatever you like or the comfortable ones." Teagan said.After Shirley heard this, she immediately turned around and went upstairs. She changed into a jacket and jeans, carrying a small backpack, with her hair tied up neatly in a ponytail.Teagan sized her up, his eyes full of praise."Beautiful!" As he said that, he turned and bid farewell to Mrs. Pollard

She smiled widely and said, "Ms. Pollard, Mr. Solis has sent you flowers again."Shirley looked at the bouquet of fiery red roses, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "I already told him not to send me off. Why wouldn't he listen?""Looks like Mr. Solis really likes you, Ms. Pollard, and that's why he chased after you like this and was unwilling to give up." Lorena said, covering her mouth as she laughed, "Then why don't you accept these flowers?""Put it in the vase on your table. The next time he sends flowers over, just tell him that I'm allergic to flowers." Shirley shook her head speechlessly.Teagan Solis was the one she was forced to go date with by her mother.
